 great little transformer February 8, 2007

I had continuously used one of these Jensen 50W transformers for months before buying a few more to power various US-purchased appliances in Europe. These converters are lightweight and plug in nicely to the European sockets. These converters are only 50W, so users should carefully check the power requirments of their appliances. I'd highly recommend this converter for overseas use with small appliances. It's relatively small and lightweight making it a good choice for travel. However, it may not be a good option for someone who wants to use it with a hair dryer. For this you should opt for a dual wattage converter (i.e. one with 1600W). A good alternative is the Recoton which is also available on Amazon.
Misleading description - watch out! September 28, 2006

Contrary to the description, which merely says, "international" and "foreign voltage" this item, out of the box, is ONLY for European outlets that require the 2 small round prong plugs. Any other outlets (such as those in the UK) will require plug adapters.
Beware! This is not not a universal transformer, at least not without additional purchases - to adapt from the 2-prong European to whatever outlets are in other countries.
I have not tested this; I will be returning it today.

This small device works flawless in France and UK for three weeks (using plug adaptors when needed) charging my Palm, digital camera and iPod. Excellent choice for the price.
Worked really well in Germany May 5, 2007

I just went to Germany for a week, so I purchased this converter. I used it to charge my Nintendo DS, Cell Phone and Camera. Keep in mind that Germany uses 220 volts and not all products can run off that voltage. So before you buy this product, check that the items you are going to use specify that they run on 110 volts and less than or equal to 50 watts. If want to charge your labtop, then you probably don't need this item. You just need an adapter, but again, make sure to check the power requirements. All in all its a good product that does exactly what it says.

Unfortunately this purchase was not correctly identified and thus is of no use. My grandson wanted to be able to play his PS2 which he brought from the UK and has been unable to play because we have not been able to locate the switch!
